Internal Medicine

An internist is a physician who focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of conditions that affect the adult population—both acute and chronic.
These doctors are often who adults see as their primary physicians because they treat a broad range of illnesses that do not require surgical or specialist interventions. They also work to help a patient maintain optimal health in order to prevent the onset of disease.
In addition to treating the common cold and flu, internists also treat chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease.

no attention to detail - missed cancer

He missed a cancerous polyp 3 years ago. Told me my colonoscopy went fine, no issues, come back in 5 years. 3 years later I had abdominal pain and they found a massive tumor in my colon that by then had spread to my liver. I am dying of stage IV colon cancer now and 3 different Boston oncologists have all said my cancer was "most likely" missed my whoever did my colonoscopies. Thank you Dr. Slye. Not a lot of options in the area but if you can, go to another facility that pays attention and doesn't just rush one patient in and out after another. They only care about the money, not patients.

DR Slye was very professionbal, spent the time to answer all of my questions. I had scheduled appts for tests needed to be performed within 5 minutes after visit completed before I walked out of the door by his courteous and professional staff.
